Truth Ads on Basil
I don't know about you, but these "Truth" ads on Basil are absolutely disgusting and not something I want to see.
Anyone else feel the same way?

Truth Ads on Basil
I don't know about you, but these "Truth" ads on Basil are absolutely disgusting and not something I want to see.
Anyone else feel the same way?

So what is next showing tumors from using your cell phone too much? Showing liver damage from drinking a beer? A dead fetus?
I don't know I just find it disgusting and over the top.
We are all going to die from something.

No it isn't. Some of the damn mods use adblock.
There's not really any excuse not to use it anyway. Not just for this website, but for crap like Youtube too.

@persephone99: When you get redirected to those ads, just block the image/frame. You'll still get redirected, but the load times will be much faster.
It's annoying. I don't want to meet Gruen!
I never noticed it. Should I be glad?
Lucky.. all i get is some video game ad about a blonde elf with weird eyes. it looks like an awful game too

Well yeah, you got my point though
I figured since it wasn't like sexual or anything, I should just leave it, but I have been more and more bothered by it lately.
It's becoming as annoying as "ohey guys I have a revolutionary, never-before-thought-of idea! basil for the iphone!"
thats what they are suppose to make you feel....disgusted
so youll never smoke.
I've been trying to ignore it for a long time now, but it's appearing like 80% of the time (yes I made up a statistic). If no one else reports it, I will ._.
I'm sorry things like that happen to people, but I'm sick and tired of seeing it on every over page on basil.
[quote=Panicka]Well, theres the one with the guy with a hole in his throat. There's the redirect ad that Basil loves to use where another guy with a hole in his threat is being interviewed. There's the one where the guys throat looks like they molded clay over it.
Can't curse on Basil. But we sure as hell can stare at throat holes.[/quote]
Gory regards from Basil Market! Yes, it absolutely make sense.
I dislike the Witch 2 one, I ALWAYS leave basil open and go watch some youtube videos BAM! Freaking music covers the video (btw how does it get past Ad Blocker?)
agreed..
I can't see them (Dutch), how do they look... globally?
